“Over the last 10 years, my life has had one constant: your love.”
This year, we filmed more weddings in our local area than any other. While we love traveling, there is something nice about working close to home as well. This wedding was a welcome surprise; hosted on a beautiful family farm that we have probably driven by and admired a dozen times.
Elizabeth, along with her family and friends, designed every detail of this wedding to feature her love for antiques and their Italian heritage. Elizabeth and Justin spent their engagement browsing antique stores, collecting the chairs and place settings. The also incorporated pieces from Elizabeth’s childhood home. The antique dresser they used as a cake table will become a valued heirloom in their new home.
During the ceremony, they read their personal vows from handmade vow books that Elizabeth had made to match the theme. They also planted a unity tree for their new home.
Elizabeth’s beaded dress is from House of Fashion in Bridgeport. Photographers are Kuirsta + Seth, who graciously provided all the images for this blog post.
While not a true elopement, the intimate nature of this small family wedding gave us the freedom to film this wedding under our Elopement Film package. If you’re planning an elopement or intimate wedding, contact MotionWorks today to talk about adding an Elopement Wedding Film to your day.
